Hi Barb,
The plan is to design and make 1 block a month until our trip next June. Since I did the first block in July, I should just make it. However, I’m late with block #3 because of some pretty invasive foot surgery (I’ll spare you the gory details) in mid-September. So, I need to get the 3rd block up ASAP, a photo of my messy design can be seen here, and try to get the 4th block done before I go to Market in Houston on the 27th. There are 2 links at the top of the same page that will take you to the completed block patterns as well as to all of my Ireland blogs.
Thanks,
Laura

Hi Dorothy,
The block patterns for Lucky Clover and Celtic Twist can be found here. The blog entry title referring to blocks #2 and #3 was sharing the news that the pattern for #2 is now posted and showing a photo of #3 which I’ve designed, but haven’t made yet.

Hi Carole,
Since the quilt is being designed month-to-month, I can’t provide a Fabric Requirements list. The block-only patterns on our website typically have a fabric description along with cutting information. You can use this info to gauge fabric needed. Since my quilt is going to be incredibly scrappy, I’m just buying small amounts of green fabrics I like and then looking through them (and my stash) to decide which to use in any given block. I hope this helps.

Hi Marty,
There will be 12 blocks, plus sashing. Whether or not you wish to add a border will be up to you. Some quilters are making extra blocks so their quilt will be larger. The blocks are very, very scrappy since I wanted to use fabrics from my stash, but now that St. Patrick’s Day fabrics have shown up in the shops I’ve been buying fat quarters left and right! I hope this helps.
